Tiger Woods has set challenge for PGA Tour stars with $1.3M reward
The PGA Tour has made its way to Mexico for this week’s event at the World Wide Technology Championship, with the host course designed by 15-time major champion Tiger Woods
The PGA Tour’s latest event is taking place at a Tiger Woods-designed course, with the World Wide Technology Championship taking place at El Cardonal in Mexico.
The former home of the tournament was Riviera Maya at Mayakoba, but the Mexican course has since cut ties with the PGA Tour to host an event on the LIV Golf circuit. This saw the Tour turn to one of their great allies in Woods, with the TGR design hosting the event for a second year.
For many competing in the field this week, it is crunch time, with players competing for their place on the PGA Tour in 2025, with the end of the FedEx Cup Fall series drawing closer.
Those in action however can expect a tough challenge around El Cardonal, with the Woods design a test. Speaking about the layout at last year’s event, U.S. Presidents Cup star Sahith Theegala said: “Tiger was talking about how he just likes to make people think on the golf course and the back nine out here is just all strategy.
There’s very few drivers, a lot of placement. You need to have good angles or else these little cacti come into play and the way the arroyos and the desert are around the greens. It’s a nice blend of kind of tactical, strategic golf.” As alluded to by Theegala, strategy was at the center of Woods’ design.
“I set up the golf strategy to make golfers think and make choices,” Woods claimed. “Regardless of your handicap, there are going to be different ways to play every hole. Angles of approach are going to be very important and will dictate the type of shots you should consider.
